Terrific Tuesday

When I lived with a friend of mine after college we would leave each day telling each other to have a good day by using the day of the week with an adjective. So it would be "Have A Marvelous Monday, Terrific Tuesday, Wonderful Wednesday", etc... So I've decided, I'm going to make Tuesdays terrific!

I still have the work situation hanging over my head. My boss returns from his trip to the West Coast today so I am hoping we'll find a way to resolve this situation. I need this knot in my stomach to go away!

Now on to the terrific stuff! (bullet-style)

* Slept in today - forgot to set the alarm and our back-up (the puppies) did not go off until 7:05am...an extra half-hour of sleep! We didn't have to rush to get ready because work is pretty quiet for both of us. (I was only about 10 minutes late, so not bad at all!)

* I ordered my meds today and they'll be here on Thursday! It's about $1K less than we had anticipated - yay!

* It's not 100 today...a stretch maybe for something terrific, but living in Southern Texas and having it under 100 in July is a good thing, epecially after last summer.

* I stepped on the scale today and it hasn't moved...generally that would not be terrific but considering my lack of exercise and the sweets I ate in the last week, I am pretty happy. I've started this week on a better note...Green Monster smoothies for breakfast. :)

* The most terrific part of this Tuesday? The support I receive from all of you!! Thank you so much for all of your comments/support regarding yesterday's post!

    1. Thanks! Here's a link about the smoothies:

      A friend told me about them earlier this year and I now love them for breakfast...I use spinach not kale and this week I've been using coconut water instead of milk. Using "tropical" fruit is my favorite - frozen mango, pineapple, strawberries. So fresh and light (but filling) for breakfast.

  2. Yay terrific Tuesday and cheaper medications! ::small jig::

    Stupid dog alarms. So unreliable. I find if I need something more reliable a 400 lb cat with no sense of humor does the trick.

  3. Well, that does sound like a terrific Tuesday, especially in contrast to yesterday's stuckness! I love the your "back-up alarm." We have one too ... except it meows, not barks.

    1. Thanks :) The back-up alarm went off right after the "real" alarm this morning. No sleeping in today!
